I was hoping that someone can give me there view on the the 2 codes my dr. Did a repair of a rotator cuff chronic w/ acromioplasty how do you decide to use a 23420 or the 23412 thanks for any light you can shine on this.

Thank you:):
 
23420 is for complete tear of the rotator cuff, generally all tendons are torn (supscapularis, supraspinatus, teres minor, infraspinatous)
